My family actually loved the BBC videos, and it got our kids interested enough to where they now have the books.

Do folks have a problem with the BBC videos? If so, what specifically are the problems?

I cannot tell you how many times we watched those BBC videos. We practically knew them by heart. Finally, my finicky movie-loving husband watched them and liked them too. We had long ago nicknamed him Puddleglum, so he finally found out why.

My kids thought those films were clunky, and the characters didn't look or sound like they thought they should. YMMV.

The only problem I have with the BBC "Narnia" is that the acting is stilted, and it is painfully and obviously low-budget.

Aslan looks like he has the mange, frankly.

Still, some people really LIKe that version, and that is their right, and I have no problem with them.

I am REALLY looking foreward to the movie this Winter.
